This science fair project idea investigates if heat from direct sunlight is hotter than heat from reflected sunlight.

This experiment examines if space objects become round after reaching a certain mass.

Science fair project in which you will attempt to throw a ball the greatest horizontal distance possible by using different angles.

How does a kazoo, the strings of a guitar, or the speaker of a radio make sound? The purpose of this science fair project is to show how vibration makes sound.

This classic children's game demonstrates how sound travels through air vs. through a solid.

In this CD hovercraft science project, students will construct their own DIY hovercraft.

This experiment will examine and precisely measure the amount of sugar in various sodas.

In this Bernoulli's Principle experiment, you'll learn how an increase in the speed of a fluid, like air, decreases pressure.

Here's a great activity that uses corks and toothpicks to create a fleet of floating boats. Which design makes for the most seaworthy vessel?

This science fair project demonstrates the principles of reflection through simple experiments involving mirrors and light.

Demonstrate how you can make your own compass using a magnetized needle. It also allows you to compare magnetic north and geographic north.

Science fair project that examines the relationship between the size of a bubble and how quickly it falls. What is the correlation?

In this experiment, students find out what happens when a less-dense fluid interacts with a denser one, replicating the effect of cooler solid rock on magma.

In this science fair project, students focus sunlight with a magnifying glass and trap shorter waves to melt ice.

This conservation of energy demonstration shows why the first hill is the highest on a roller coaster. Learn more about potential and kinetic energy!

Teach your little scientist about the amazing powers of gravity by comparing the falling speeds of two yummy fruits

Examine whether males or females are more likely to have a higher center of gravity.

Demonstrate Newton's laws of motion by examining the relationship between mass, force, and acceleration during free-fall.

Science fair project that tests the effects of diluted soap on the size of bubbles blown from the solution. Will dilution cause smaller bubbles?

Science fair project the demonstrates Newton's Third Law using a milk carton filled with water.

In this activity, your child will learn about a style of gardening that uses moss, also called "kokedama."

This awesome diffraction grating experiment puts high school students' applied math skills to the test by having them calculate the wavelength of laser light.

Explore how you can achieve magnetic levitation with the Meissner Effect! This cool science project explains formation and applications of a superconductor.

This project demonstrates the correspondence between the volume of water displaced by a submerged object and the volume of the object displacing it.

Air invisible; it doesn't make sounds; you can't pick it up and throw it. So how do we know it exists? Help your second grade scientist figure it out.

This experiment will explore if magnetism has any effect on the regeneration abilities of flatworms.

This science fair project idea tests whether tall people have the ability to swim faster than people of average and shorter heights.

This science fair project idea explores whether a person's ability to see under very dim lighting conditions diminishes with age.

The objective of this science fair project is to experiment with balancing everyday objects and observing the the effects of gravity on materials.

The objective of this science fair project is to observe the properties of friction and apply this knowledge to search for a near-frictionless surface.
